Hm $8 to $10 billion in software revenue then?
Retailers get 10% of that...7-9 billion for game publishers. I would think Microsoft games are 1/4 to 1/3 of that software revenue...which leaves 4.8 billion to 6.0 billion for software publishers.
If its 5.4 billion in software revenue, over 3.5 years that amounts to about $1.54b in third party software revenue per year.
Not a tremendously big market frankly given the increased cost of development.
People are difficult to govern because they have too much knowledge.
When there are more laws, there are more criminals.
